Originally, the lowering of `alloc` operations has been computing the number of
bytes to allocate when lowering based on the properties of MLIR type. This does
not take into account type legalization that happens when compiling LLVM IR
down to target assembly. This legalization can widen the type, potentially
leading to out-of-bounds accesses to `alloc`ed data due to mismatches between
address computation that takes the widening into account and allocation that
does not. Use the LLVM IR's equivalent of `sizeof` to compute the number of
bytes to be allocated:
%0 = getelementptr %type* null, %indexType 0
%1 = ptrtoint %type* %0 to %indexType

This CL finishes the implementation of the lowering part of the [strided memref RFC](https://groups.google.com/a/tensorflow.org/forum/#!topic/mlir/MaL8m2nXuio).
Strided memrefs correspond conceptually to the following templated C++ struct:
```
template <typename Elem, size_t Rank>
struct {
Elem *ptr;
int64_t offset;
int64_t sizes[Rank];
int64_t strides[Rank];
};
```
The linearization procedure for address calculation for strided memrefs is the same as for linalg views:
`base_offset + SUM_i index_i * stride_i`.
The following CL will unify Linalg and Standard by removing !linalg.view in favor of strided memrefs.

The strided MemRef RFC discusses a normalized descriptor and interaction with library calls (https://groups.google.com/a/tensorflow.org/forum/#!topic/mlir/MaL8m2nXuio).
Lowering of nested LLVM structs as value types does not play nicely with externally compiled C/C++ functions due to ABI issues.
Solving the ABI problem generally is a very complex problem and most likely involves taking
a dependence on clang that we do not want atm.
A simple workaround is to pass pointers to memref descriptors at function boundaries, which this CL implement.
PiperOrigin-RevId: 271591708
The RFC for unifying Linalg and Affine compilation passes into an end-to-end flow with a predictable ABI and linkage to external function calls raised the question of why we have variable sized descriptors for memrefs depending on whether they have static or dynamic dimensions (https://groups.google.com/a/tensorflow.org/forum/#!topic/mlir/MaL8m2nXuio).
This CL standardizes the ABI on the rank of the memrefs.
The LLVM struct for a memref becomes equivalent to:
```
template <typename Elem, size_t Rank>
struct {
Elem *ptr;
int64_t sizes[Rank];
};
```

Some of the operations in the LLVM dialect are required to model the LLVM IR in
MLIR, for example "constant" operations are needed to declare a constant value
since MLIR, unlike LLVM, does not support immediate values as operands. To
avoid confusion with actual LLVM operations, we prefix such axuiliary
operations with "mlir.".
PiperOrigin-RevId: 266942838
The code and documentation for this chapter of the tutorial have been updated to follow the new flow. The toy 'array' type has been replaced by usages of the MLIR tensor type. The code has also been cleaned up and modernized.

Change the AsmPrinter to number values breadth-first so that values in adjacent regions can have the same name. This allows for ModuleOp to contain operations that produce results. This also standardizes the special name of region entry arguments to "arg[0-9+]" now that Functions are also operations.

The current syntax separates the name and value with ':', but ':' is already overloaded by several other things(e.g. trailing types). This makes the syntax difficult to parse in some situtations:
Old:
"foo: 10 : i32"
New:
"foo = 10 : i32"
PiperOrigin-RevId: 255097928
This is the standard syntax for types on operations, and is also already used by IntegerAttr and FloatAttr.
Example:
dense<5> : tensor<i32>
dense<[3]> : tensor<1xi32>

These were likely added in error because of confusion about the flag when it was just called "-verify". The extra flag doesn't cause much harm, but it does make mlir-opt do more work and clutter the RUN line
PiperOrigin-RevId: 254037016
This name has caused some confusion because it suggests that it's running op verification (and that this verification isn't getting run by default).
PiperOrigin-RevId: 254035268
This CL implements the previously unsupported parsing for Range, View and Slice operations.
A pass is introduced to lower to the LLVM.
Tests are moved out of C++ land and into mlir/test/Examples.
This allows better fitting within standard developer workflows.

making the IR dumps much nicer.
This is part 2/3 of the path to making dialect types more nice. Part 3/3 will
slightly generalize the set of characters allowed in pretty types and make it
more principled.

Mainly a missing dependency caused the tests to pass if one already built
the repo, but not from a clean (or incremental) build.
